“Danny did a tremendous job keeping the pressure on Bonny Eagle’s No. 1 player, Ryan Moody,” said Blazes head coach Sam Johnson. “Danny is an extremely smart tennis player – he understands game situations probably better than anyone else on our team – and he has an astounding ability to elevate his play at key moments of the match.”

“Dylan and Jameson stepped up big time in the super tiebreaker,” said Johnson. “Dylan and Jameson’s games seem to contrast each other: Dylan relies on his speed and ball placement, whereas Jameson relies on his power and great instincts. The two demonstrated great chemistry together.”

Johnson added that “Adam’s great footwork and Ian’s ability to dominate the net helped lead them to victory.”

Westbrook opens the season at 1-0; they followed up Bonny Eagle with a trip to Gorham on Wednesday the 27th, after Current Publishing’s print deadlines. They welcome Sanford on Friday the 29th. The Blazes, it’s worth noting, went just 1-11 in 2015, so they’ve already matched their win total from last year. That makes it easy to hear the sincerity in Johnson’s voice when he says the team is “so excited!”

Bonny Eagle kicks off its schedule with a loss. The Scots hosted Scarborough on Wednesday and travel to Windham on Friday.
